Jessica, in a stunning full length red gown, and dapper Ore were the hosts with the most under the wings of Concorde at the Runway Visitor Park at Manchester Airport for the glittering charity ball in aid of the Breast Cancer Now charity.

And with both Jessica and Ore having shown off their dance skills on TV in recent months, it was a meeting of twinkle-toed talents!

Ore joked: “This will be the partnership of 2017 you just look out for us!”

Jessica, who starred on ITV’s Dance Dance Dance show added: “We’ve got a kind of mix of every genre between us, we’ve got lots of positives - well he won, I didn’t!”

They were joined by a host of stars at the ball, including former Corrie stars Hayley Tamaddon, Les Dennis and Tupele Dorgu, Real Housewives of Cheshire Seema Malhotra and Stacey Forsey and Celebrity Big Brother’s Jessica Cunningham.

“One in eight women in the UK will face breast cancer in their lifetime so I am delighted to help raise funds for Breast Cancer Now’s life-saving research.”

Baroness Delyth Morgan, chief executive of the charity, said: “Tonight has been a spectacular evening and it’s wonderful to see so many people in Manchester supporting the Pink Ribbon Ball.

“Breast cancer touches the lives of millions of people in the UK. Right now, more women are being diagnosed with the disease than ever before and nearly 1,000 women in the UK die from breast cancer every month.

“That’s why fundraising events such as this are so important. As well as everybody having a fantastic evening, the ball is about raising money to fund Breast Cancer Now’s research into this devastating disease and we are so grateful for all of the support in Manchester. We hope everybody will join us next year for another fabulous evening of entertainment.”
